Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination.

Two great photos. They're so close I could almost feel the slime.
Nice capture, as usual! Just love your work.
Have a great day!
I think banana slugs are kind of cute actually.
Sweet photo, B. I think it was me that asked you for said photo.
I featured one of these creatures myself in my own blog, but this one has that black mottling going for it. I'm looking for a big black slug on my strolls around Elk and Beaver Lake. Haven't found a nice specimen yet, but I remain optimistic...
I'm with JoJo. Cold and slimy as they are, I like the little critters.
I like slugs. Until they eat my hostas! Great shots!
Mike...the Galloping Goose trail north of Sooke Rd. is slug city. My relaxing walk was a bit spoiled a week ago, as I had to keep my head down make an effort not to squash the little guys with every other step...
Too funny... only a northwesterner would post a slug... can I send all of them from my vegetable garden up your way... I can send them Priority Mail... :-)
Madge - at least I waited until there was a request. I also resisted mentioning how popular they are with gardeners. Thanks very much for your offer to send some up here but we have plenty. There are so many beer traps in our backyard that on a warm day it smells like a brewery....
